You properly have to redefine FT_EXPORT and FT_EXPORT_DEF, I think, to
pass `__declspec(dllexport)' or something like this to the compiler.
However, I can't give any precise recipe since I don't use this
platform.

It would be great if the visual studio files could be updated to
handle this automatically.  However, I got the impression that this
already works...

Can someone shed light on this?
